So sorry to hear about John’s passing I’ve known John for over 30 years he was my friend he will be missed dearly prayers for John’s family may he rest in peace
You were my best friend and my love. I will cherish all of the good times we shared together.
IF TEARS COULD BUILD A STAIRWAY
If tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane
I would walk right up to heaven, and bring you back again.
No farewell words were spoken, no time to say “goodbye”,
You were gone before I knew it, and only God knows why.
My heart still aches with sadness, and secret tears still flow.
What it meant to love you, no one will ever know.
But now I know, you would want me to mourn for you, no more.
To remember all the happy times, life still has much in store.
Since you”ll never be forgotten, I pledge to you today-
A hollowed place within my heart, is where you’ll always stay.

John was a good friend of mine for many years. Always had me laughing in tears. He will be truly missed. See you on the other side Johnny.
Irwinkle ( as I called him) was such a huge part of my life, starting when I was just a teen hanging up the T . He was the one person I always looked for when I was hanging out in Quincy, as his smile used to make me feel like I was home again. Words can’t describe how much I will miss him .. today , tomorrow and forever.
The world won’t be the same without you. You were one of a kind. One hell of a guy –a funny bastard. Who’s gonna have my back now!! Save a brew for me, Your friend Mike
One true friend love you buddy
